The Vegas Golden Knights (6-2-3) trailed early and were never able to catch up to the visiting Colorado Avalanche, who defeated Vegas 4-2 in the Nevada Day game Friday afternoon at T-Mobile Arena. For the ninth time in 11 games this season, the Golden Knights gave up the first goal. It took less than a minute for the road team to take a 1-0 lead, as Martin Necas scored just 41 seconds in.
